Atlanta Brisket

Carolina Q

Anyone ever heard of such a thing? I was watching ATK last night and they did one. Basically, a brisket flat braised in a Coke sauce for 4 hours. Since I don't much like standard brisket (or Coke for that matter), I'm not optimistic. Thought I'd survey the group though. Whatchathink?

I've started to do one...but never pulled the trigger.

Sounds like an oxymoron to me. I guess the Atlanta comes from the Coke in the recipe.

Carolina Q

Well, since I've never met a "real" brisket I actually liked, maybe I could like a fake one? I know it'll never be as good as a butt or a chicken breast or even Brussels sprouts, but....

As far as I know, Atlanta (or Georgia, for that matter) has no signature food. Well, except peaches. And Brunswick stew, but even that was stolen from Virginia.

If you want to braise in soda, keep it TX and use DP

Wow. Ignorance must be bliss.

THE staple Atlanta food: greasy chili dog and onion rings at The Varsity downtown!

Everything else is imported!

When you get down around the ATL, most of the people are imports.

So @EggerinLA, since you obviously have identified a signature food for Atlanta, please do share?

More Georgia than Atlanta. Do your own damn research.

I would give GA pecan pie maybe. We actually are out produced by a few states for peaches now. I heard this week we are number one in blueberries now.

I have to say kamado food should be atlantas signature. Some how we have BGE, KJ, and Primo all right by each other.
